Thanks for the love shown for the cricket commentary. I didn't return to the world of commentary but also the outside world after two years. I was out of the public's eye for a while, but the love shown to me is still the same. I just returned (from Ahmedabad) to Chennai, after completing the commentary for the match, and the love I received from the first people I met here felt really good. The feedback on social media, and the ones I receive personally for my commentary, and the positive ratings feels good too. I accept all of your love, with all humility. This job is one I love a lot, and it makes me happy that it is loved by all of you too."

I understand the disappointment the fans, especially Suriya's fans have, as this statement has been said multiple times before. Of course, it has been a long wait, for me too. I have been working on this for almost two years. Your wait will be worth it. I am also not in the mindset to take more time for this. Within a week or 10 days, we will meet you with the news of the film's release date. I will also say that the film is not releasing on April 10. There are a lot of rumours that claim that the producer has had a falling out with the director, or the music director, or even another producer. I understand the frustration of the wait. Trust me everyone will like this film."
